What Sets Dobermans Apart?


Read More

While all dogs are individuals with their own personalities and dispositions, many Dobermans share a few key traits. Those who know and love Dobermans appreciate their loyal nature. Often referred to as “velcro dogs,” Dobermans are devoted to their owners and will often follow their chosen humans throughout the house.

When trained correctly, Dobermans are incredibly obedient and protective. Intelligent and motivated to please, Dobermans were historically bred as work dogs and still make excellent therapy companions. Dobermans also tend to be energetic and need plenty of enrichment and attention.

    Meggie is a wonderful trainer! She helped train our golden retriever puppy. She is affectionate and firm while training, and our puppy not only loved Meggie but listened to her. I would recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone!

    Jeff and I took Dexter my 115 lbs 1 year old European Doberman to Scheels today. Dexter is doing obedience training and working on his KGS. Working on crowds and distractions. Jeff is an amazing trainer, Dexter did so great today, I’m very proud of him. Dexter is being trained as my service dog. Thanks Jeff as always, you’re amazing!!!

    We were so impressed with our first meeting with Jeff. He analyzed our dogs and was very honest with his recommendations. He gave us hope that there is a solution to assist with some bad behaviors the dogs have developed but didn’t sugarcoat the truth in telling us to be exactly where we want the dogs behavior to be when around others (dogs people they don’t discriminate) we’re about a year out of daily corrections and praises. I was excited to know that we can correct the behavior. He was very direct in the fact that the owner is as much involved as the dog and trainer. The owner will also be given homework. I was so impressed that before we start our second lesson, we are to show the trainer where the dogs have come over that week. I love that. He was also very clear that every dog has their own personality and what works for one dog doesn’t always work for the one sitting right next to him or her. I agreed with this philosophy, 100% There are no bad dogs just bad trainers dog training elite is the (sorry for the pun,) elite in the dog training world. If you want a training facility that trains you as much as the dogs this is the trainer for you.

    We had a fantastic experience with Dog Training Elite. Jeff was clearly very knowledgeable and confident with dogs, and even though this was just a meet-and-greet, he took the time to show us exactly what we could expect from training. He was amazing with our young, hyper Dalmatian—calm, patient, and engaging—which immediately put us at ease. It was obvious he understands dog behavior and knows how to work with high-energy breeds. We left feeling excited and confident about the training process. Highly recommend Dog Training Elite and Jeff!

    Jeff was great with our dog Sera, she loved him and his dog. We are really excited to start training with him. Had our 3rd lesson with Meggie and it was very good she have us great advice. Meggie and Happy were awesome to work with and she is very positive. Finally went to a puppy socialization class with Jeff. It was really good for my puppy and really showed me what I still need to work on. Seraphina did really well and I was super pleased. I definitely have my work cut out for me though cause she could careless about treats. She just wants to play. She was definitely ready for bed last night and she's still tired this morning..LOL Jeff was out today and he was excellent with Seraphina. She is a very stubborn alpha puppy and he really helped me to understand how to handle her stubborn side. She is already listening better, but i am working on being the alpha in or relationship. I had to tie her to my desk cause I told her to stay and she kept leaving. Eventually I was able to untie her and she stayed and fell asleep 😴 💤 We all went to Lowes with Meggie and had a great class working on sit for duration and not breaking with distractions. Seraphina loves running through the big blue flatbed carts. It was very fun. Thank you Meggie.

    McCall (and everyone else at DTE) was absolutely incredible—it truly felt like she treated Gunner like her own!! She took our dog—a well-known trash goblin—to a certified good boy. Gunner is seriously the most well-behaved and obedient boy now! He LOVED going every morning, and would even start whining in the car as soon as we turned into the parking lot! We’re excited to start the group classes to keep up on Gunner’s training!

    Thanks to the Jeff and Yaga team for teaching Brady and I some new behaviors. We appreciate you so much for helping US become a better team. I highly recommend Jeff and all the trainers at Dog Training Elite.

    Wow, Jeff arrived and quickly put our dog Delilah at ease. She’s always so happy to see him. Today we learned the Heal command. She did extremely well even with distractions like Jeff’s dog walking with us; small killer dog barking at us; and motorcycles going by. We highly recommend the Elite Dog Trainers to all wanting training for themselves and their dogs. Mary and Curtis.

Why Train Dobermans?

Read More
Read Less

Dobermans have the potential to be incredible companions and content family dogs with the correct training and attention. Dobermans are eager to please and can help protect and keep you company. On the other hand, their energetic nature and high intelligence can also lead to destructive behavior without proper enrichment and direction. They are also large and powerful dogs that can easily become dangerous without guidance, just as all breeds can.

Dobermans thrive with enrichment and direction, and it is always safest to have a well-trained dog. Your dog, family, and community are best served by thorough training and ongoing exercise and enrichment. Having the peace of mind that your dog will obey your directions no matter the environment and circumstances is the best way to keep everyone safe.

When it comes to dog training, earlier is always better with Salt Lake City Doberman puppy training, but that’s not to say that older dogs cannot or should not be trained. Especially with such an intelligent dog breed, training at any age is an excellent choice. Other signs that it’s time to start training include aggression toward other dogs or people, anxiety in public spaces, or poor recall.
